Title: Hi! I'm a new member from CT, USA
Post by: witchy13 on February 04, 2013, 03:54:11 PM

Greetings,
I have been making cheese for several months now and I am hooked! I have tried numerous fresh cheeses which have all been yummy. My aged cheese adventures have included Cheddar, Colby, Jack, Granna, and Provalone. Alas, none of these have been sampled yet. I am learning many things from this hobby but the hardest lesson has been patience!

I have many questions and look forward to learning from all of you.

Hi Witchy!  I'm new to this business too having made just 4 cheeses: gruyere, 2 parmesans, and a farmhouse cheddar.  Each one has been a learning experience, and each has come with its unique set of questions...many of which have been answered on this site (therefore I joined!).  Keep having fun with it :-)!

Thanks for the welcome and nice to meet you! Going to try my hand at Gorgonzola today.But  I guess that's a subject for another board!

I have an embarrassing number of cheese photos. I will restrain  myself and only share a photo of my most recent creation. Last week I made Gorgonzola for the first time. This is a picture of it after coming out of the mold.

Oh PLEASE don't restrain yourself on the posting of cheese photos!!!!!!!  If I had a bumper sticker on me it would surely read "I brake for Cheese Photos!".  :D. Don't hold back!!
